Editing Old Posts

It seems that the possibility to edit very old posts is now gone. I dont know much about them stuff but is it only me ? I often used old posts to draft an OP or a huge post, so I'm sad and confused now. Is this only temporally or what we write is irreversible

Ah yeah programs might be an issue for the OP, i was just thinking of tournaments. Maybe maps but ionno if one guy would work on one map for +6 months and not be doing that on a map making fourm, and then there are threads that are collections of like guides. I think that's all of the thread types that would require an op to edit his post for updates.

I know this is not as important as SC2 Gears, but the BrotherMack thread that I started and now compile his videos as he comes out with more hilarious content may be affected if 6 months is the cap on when I can edit. Assuming he continues to release more videos of course.

Maybe have it as a mod option that is always on (6 month limit for edits). The OP can then ask a Moderator if they can have the limit removed for special purposes like Gears and other various tools and events.

Was thinking of that too, but rather with a bot like how the streams are. Ohterwise mods might overflowed with p.ms

I do not like this change. Fan club threads are in danger. My Big Programming Thread is soon to be no longer editable. Many iCCup threads (map thread, IMS, ITL, etc) and other tournament threads will be messed up.....just too much stuff.

I decided to finally update my info in the SC2 Practice Partner Retail thread, but I could not because of the new change. Is there any way to make an exception for that particular thread (since I'm sure I'm not the only one who will have this problem), and if not, is there any way I can update my info?
